’Flint field, nature reserve Schmale Heide, Rügen.’

The Feuersteinfelder (flintfields) in nature reserve Schmale Heide south of Neu Mukran on the island of Rügen are very rare on Earth. They have been eroded out of the coastal limestone cliffs and been washed inland by the sea about 4000 years ago. Photo Paul Smit.

’Frescoes in the Marienkirche, Bergen, Island of Rügen.’

The Marienkirche in Bergen, the capital of the island of Rügen, is completely covered with frescoes, discovered behind layers of plaster at the end of the 19th century. The partly abstract and psychedelical murals were restored then, but now they need restoration again. The church seeks donations. The Marienkirche is a great example of the Backsteingotik, the brick architecture of the Gothic period, typical of the regions around the Baltic Sea. Photo Paul Smit.

’Inland sea or Bodden near Ummanz.’

Looking from the island of Ummanz towards its neighbour, the island of Rügen. This is the typical Bodden landscape, part of the Baltic Sea but on the inland side of the islands, where the climate is less rude and windy. National park Vorpommersche Boddenlandschaft (Western Pomeranian Bodden Landscape), of which Ummanz is part, tries to protect this unique landscape. Photo Paul Smit.
